bman - AWESOME find! To me it's amazing to find a 40+ year old coin in BU. Even more amazing for a copper piece!

Check out the 1960D small date I found a couple of months ago. I about crapped when I poured open the roll, this coin immediately jumped out at me...the first one I picked out of the Brinks roll. In hand it's beautiful, the mint luster is 110%. It's a Lincoln cent that glows in a pile of circ coins. Check out the start of bullseye toning, I captured it pretty well. I believe this coin was in an album of some sort and sadly somebody just spent the coins. I don't know how else to explain that toning.

Yep I hear ya guys in my last $20 worth of cent rolls I came out with 66,67.68-P reds and two 1970-S,1975,76,77,78-Ds in red. Now seems like a good time to be searching. The one bank I go to sold out of pennies by noon ($75 worth) OH and thanks Badthad for getting me hooked on saving all the BUs now I have a roll of 1994,95,96,97-Ds

OK will do thanks. Ya I thought I would toss all the shiny ones into rolls then later taken them back out for better studying. That way I can get most of the bad ones back to the bank and grab some more out of circulation before they get damaged further. LOL
